Parma vs. Inter: Match Prediction
Home support doesn't always help Parma secure positive results, and often the team loses even against not-so-strong opponents. In their last 13 home Serie A matches, the club has won only three times, losing seven of those encounters. Specifically, the team failed to score points in matches against Lecce, Verona, Genoa, and Cagliari.
Inter has recently faced challenges in away matches, but it's worth noting that Simone Inzaghi's side had a tough schedule – the team faced top-9 opponents in five consecutive league matches. During this period, the Milanese won only once, but the victory was crucial from a tournament perspective, as they defeated Atalanta, one of their championship rivals. Overall, Inter has nine wins in their last 13 away Serie A encounters.
I believe the visitors will exploit the weaknesses of their opponents and secure three points. My prediction: Inter to win
